London, December 11.?Telegrams
in regard to the transit of Venns re?
port that the observations failed at
Ormak, Orenburg, Kosno, Urslk,
Altraokan, Keateb and Liflis, but were
successful at Yokohama.
The limes, in an editorial, saya u
telegram wbioh wu are esablcd to pub?
lish, shows that at Nagasaki, although
the weather was unfavorable, the
transit observations were mado in an
admirable and exhaustive manner,
which the American astronomers,
skilled in expoditionary work, know
well how to apply. We fear the ob?
servations at Prof. Hall's station are
useless, being made by the Halloyou
method, heuce tbe oareful determina?
tion indioated by the American tele?
gram becomes of enormous impor?
tance.

Washington, Deoember 10.?Pro?
minent membors of the Senate Fi?
nance Committee express the opinion
that there will be no time to inaugu?
rate nor to carry through any mea?
sures looking to a ro-adjustmeat of le?
gislation on the finances, so as to
bring it in accord with eomo defined
polioy. Tho antagonistic theories ad
vooated by the bard money and infla?
tion parties in the Seuate are as
etrongly supported as last session, and
the members of the aommjttco say
that there are no indications of a com?
promise on either side. Ouo member,
when it was suggested that the Presi?
dent would recommend action on the
finances remarked that the season
would be consumed with the appro?
priation bills, and so did not think it
advisable to re-open that inexhaustible
topio of discussion.
A g-jod deal has been said of tbo in?
tention of tho Republican leader-: iu
the House to take up at ouaoaud press
to a vote the Senate Civil Rights Bill,
now on the Speaker's table, und send
it to tbo President; but inquiry shows
that nothing of the kind is iuteuded.
Gen. Butler entered, at tho hist ses?
sion, a motion to rc-comcuit the bill to
the Judiciary Committee, and it is bis
intention to have it take thut course,
with a view of amendiug it nud send?
ing it back to the Senate.
Tho full opinion of Justice Bradley,
of the United States Supreme Court,
deciding iu the Liuisima caso that
the Enforcement Act ia unconstitu?
tional, has boon made public bore, and
is very strong from such a source us to
leave no doubt iu the miuds oi good
lawyers of both parties that the full
bunch will confirm it iu March. This
will relieve the opposition of tbo neces?
sity of introducing a biil for tbo repeal
of the law. Justice Bradley is a Re?
publican, and is the last appointmuut
to tbe Supremo Bench mado by Grant.
It has transpired that for two weeks
past a strong pressure has beeu made
on Gon. Butler, as Chairman of the
House Judiciary Committee, to induce
him to obango front on the proposed
impeachment of Judge Durell. The
letter's friends have besieged him in
all waya to invoke bia vote in the com?
mittee, and thus ohange the result;
but he steadily refused, and even in?
formed them that he should report the
resolution for Durell'a impaaohment at
tbe earliest practicable moment. Iu
view of this state of affairs, Durell was
advised at once to resign, which he
did promptly. Butler, it is said, be?
lieves Durell to have been a very un?
righteous judge.

Washington, Decomber 11?8 P. M.
Iu tho House, the day was spent on a
bill extending the patent of Rollin
Whito, for tiro-arms, which was re?
jected. A warruut has boon issued for
R. B. Irwin, ageut of the Pacific Mail
Steamship Company, who disposed of
?S750.?00 iu connection with the addi?
tional subsidy for the Chiua mail?he
having failed to appear before the Com?
mittee of Ways aud Moans, which is
investigating that subject. Adjourned
till Mouday. The Senuto was uot in
session.
At ? meeting of the House Judiciary
Committee, this morning, a sub-com?
mittee was appointed to draw up an?
other Civil Rights bill. It is under?
stood that the committee uro iu
structed to incorporate all the essential
features of the Senate bill, now on thu
House calendar, omittiug therefrom
the cemetery und school sections.
Iu thx Alabama Claims C ?urt, oa=e
IIS?Goolou tv. United Slates?came
up for discussion to day, on the de?
murrer entered by Geu. Cruswell,
counsel for the Government, demur?
ring to the petition on the ground that
the said Gordou at tho time ot tiio al- j
leged loss, although serving ou an
American vessel, was a Uritisu subject.
The easo was argued on the part ol the
elaimaut by Henry C. Bliss, of this
oity, and for tha Government by Gen.
Creswell. Tho urgumcut developed
the fact that tue questions were the
most important that have yet arisen in \
this Court, aud introduced important
law points connected with citizenship,
naturalization and expatriation. Tho
argument occupied the entire day, and
a decision will probably bo rendered j
early next week. An important case
was set for a hearing next Moudaj*?
being that of Whitiug r.s. United States.
Tho nature of the case will cause it to
be interesting to every seaman captured
by Confederate cruisers. Whitiug, who
was an Americau suilor on board tho
Levi Starbuck, was captured by the
Alabama, aud, us alleged, received
such hardships ou board that vessel,
that he lost the entire use of his bauds
and feet, and as compensation claims
350,000.
Another despatch says the remains
of the Confederate dead were removed
to-day, with suitable funeral coromo
nies, from near Stiver Springs. On
Monday and Tuesday, July 12 aud 13,
1SG-1, an attack was mude upon Fort
Stevens, on the North side of Wash?
ington, by a column of Confederate
troops, oi Gen. Early's corps, uudor
the immediate command of Geu. Gor?
don, now Senator from Georgia.
Quite a number of soldiers belongiug
to the Uniou army were killed in the
engagement, und their rem iius were
afterward bnriei? in Battle Cemetery,
which was laid oat ou tbeSeventn
street road, near F'ort Sto7eus, for
that purpose. There were also a num?
ber of Confederate soldiers killed, ami
their remains were interred on a farm
near the fort, where thoy foil. A few
weeks ago, some friends of the "iot.t
cause," headed by Rev. J. B. Averill,
pastor of Grace P. E. Church, situated
about two miles above Silver Springs,
resolved to gather up the remains and
remove them to the abovo-uamed
Johurch-yard for interment; aud steps
I were immediately taken to carry tho
plan into effect, nud progressed so
satisfactorily as to be executed to-day.
On Tuesday last, tho hodios, to the
number of Keveutueo, were exhumed
and placed iu six plain cofUns and
borne to tho church-yard, where tin y
were placed on a bier in front of the
church, and after appropriate cere
j mouies, were re-intt rred. A number ol
I persons, including many ladies, were
[present. Tho oofliuo wen- covered
with wreaths.
Rev. Mr. Avcroll rend tho burial sei-1
vice, when the assemblage repaired U> j
tha rectory, u few yards distant, where
Dr.A.Y. P. Garnott, of Washington,
delivered tbo oration. He congratu?
lated those present that tho time had
como when they could do justice to
tho memorios of their friomls aud per?
form such ceremonies unmolested, aud
claimed that they should uot perform
the uot coldly aud with subdued spirits.
He alluded to tho causes of tbo war
aud justified tho South for their ac?
tion. He once alluded to tht willing?
ness of the South to tako up arms to
defend their homes from iuvasion,
when a voice in the orowd sail, "And
we are still willing to do it, doctor."
He alloded to the'Sotrttm-rotrr*p8opro.

Bishop Pinokney read a poem, full of
tender allusions of tbe dead, which
was well received. A vote of thanks
was tendered to Dr. Garnett and
Bishop Pinokney and a copy of tho
address and poem a^-ked for publica?
tion in book form. The bearers then
proceeded to the grave and filled it
with earth and thu assemblage dis?
persed.
New York, December 11.?Tbe Post
sayB a distinct shock of an earthquake
was felt at 10.30 o'clock, last night, in
the upper part of tbo city, all along tbo
Hudson, up tho Harlem road aud at
Stamford, Conn., families were aroused
from their beds, crockery skuken, etc.
Iu relation to tho shock of an earth?
quake, last night, tbo Post further says
a very distinct shock wus felt at Dobb'fs
Ferry and on the West bank of tho
Hudson, between Youkers aud Tarry
town. About 10.25 P. M., a bouse
shook with such tremendous motion
that a family rushed from it, thinking
it was being crushed. The noise ac?
companying this shock was as well de?
fined nud hud much the character of a
eharp clap of thunder. There are
comparatively few reports of the shook
having been felt iu this city; one fami?
ly, however, in tho Twenty-first Ward,
observed it 60 distinctly that some of
them got out oi bed to learn tho
cause. Persons residing iu Mouut
Vernon, East Chester, New Kocholle
aud other villages ulong tho Eist side
of Westebester County, suy the shock
was felt at 10'20 P. M., and appeared
to pass from u South-easterly to u
North-westerly directum. Many wore
greatly alarmed?believing that some
dreadtul explosion hud occurred iu the
neighborhood. On the line of the
New Haven llailruad, the shock wiiti
felt as far EiM ns Stamford.
Ou the Harlem Btilroud lim-,
it was very severe, especially iu the
villages North. At William's Bridge,
Fordbaru nud Alt. Hope there was con?
siderable alarm. Iu the Tweuty-fuurtb
Ward of this city, it was also very per?
ceptible; new bouses, built in a most
substantial manner, and proof against
severe storms, wete shaken from their
foundations to roofs, causing great
tenor to the occupants. At Spuytcti
Dnyval, the- coucussiou was so seven
it caused general alarm, and iu tu toy
I of the houses lights were kept burning
till a lite hour, and the inhabitants
were on t!i?.> alert fer n repetition of the
shock. Uno of thu mounted patrol
tuen s^tys that it terrified his h ir e,,
aud the animal became almost un?
manageable. The shock was very dis?
tinct at Tarry town, and persous were
to alarmed as to runout ot doors. Tuo
earthquake was felt very distinctly at
White Plaiuj. Accounts vary us to
tbo duration of tho shock?some ui
those who felt it being of tho opinion
that it lasted as long as ?fteeu seconds,
while others limit it to five seconds.
The general direction of the noise, ac
compuuied by Hlight oscillation, seems
to have beeu from North to South, ac?
counts from different persons mukiug
it pass from North-east to South-west,
aud from North-west to South-east.
Ia the Beecher-Tilton suit, the
Court decided to gMUt a bill of par?
ticulars. Tho Court said the law im?
poses uo impossibility aud does not re?
quire from tbo plaintiff thu designa?
tion of the precise day, at tbe hazard
of fui'.uro of justice, it ho failed to
prove the aot upon the precise day.
It is sufficient if he designates the day
with reasonable approximation, 60 that
the defend iut is fairly apprised of the
charges. In viow of affidavit of plain?
tiff read ou this motiou, it will be suf?
ficient for bim to state iu tho bill of
particulars to bs furnished, that two
acts of criminal intimacy, alleged to
bavei taken place on tbo 10th and 17th
I days of October, 1SG3, wero commit?
ted ou or about those days, at either
ono or tho other of tbo places men?
tioned iu tho affidavit; or, as suggest?
ed by one ol tbo counsel for defeudaut,
it may bo regarded as suflicient to say .
that those acts were committed during I
Ihi month of October, 1803, auch state?
ment, fairly acqn dnts the defeudaut
with tho charge ho is to meet.

I are to discard all old political ties and

words of Thomas Swan, late President |
of the Polobearors. In their preamblo
and resolutions they Hay: "We are

we have beeu for years the dupes of
crafty, deigning, unprincipled meu,
whose only object was their own per

A Comh.vt Between Mam motu Uni
l'ohns. ? Ou Satardry afternoon, at
Birnuni's Museum, iu New York, a
female riiinni eros, weighing about
5\50() pounds, was placed temporarily
in the cage of ? male uuioorn, weigh?
ting about 1,500 pounds. The mole
became lurioui at this iutruuon, and.
iayiiig aside ail gallantry, charged
furiously upon the object ;.: hi:s wrath,
driving her into one corner of the
cage. The femalo tbeu faced her ad?
versary and fought bravely, aud was
ublu to defend lurself so long as she
did not expose her flanks ti the
enemy. Iu her struggles, however,
she was throwu crosswise of the pen,
wheu her opponent gored her fear?
fully in tho side with his tusk, actually
lifting her from the floor.
The sliuggles of the huge animals
woro accompanied with loud roars, the
tumult being augmented by thu af?
frighted cries of the 000 other animals
composing the menagerie. The boasts
throw their combined woight ugaiust
the bars of the cage, which threatened
to break under so much btraiu. The
keeper, uftoi a strenuoos effort, suc?
ceeded in placing a barricade between
tho combatauts by throwing whatever
wos at baud into the cage, and thus
effectually separating them. The door
was then throwu opt-u, aud the female
taken from the cage, covered with
wounds, whioh bled copiously, und
after some difficulty wus placed iu her
old quarters. Tho animal displays
such hardihood that it is believed she
will survive.
